bahut hi parde mein izhaar-e-arzu karte
nigahen kahti hain hum un se guftugu karte

sharab-e-nab se saqi jo hum wuzu karte
haram ke log tawaf-e-khum-o-subu karte

wo mil ke dast-e-hinai se dil lahu karte
hum aarzu to hasin khun-e-arzu karte

darogh-bafi-e-dushman ka haal kya khulta
jo parda chaak bhi hota to wo rafu karte

utar late unhen baam-e-tur se dil mein
hum ikhtiyar wo andaz-e-guftugu karte

dare wo kyun mere phulon mein aati mil ke hina
ye phul khak tamanna-e-rang-o-bu karte

kalim ko na ghash aata na tur hi jalta
dabi zaban se izhaar-e-arzu karte

jo zarf-e-ab hamein mai-kade mein mil jata
namaz kabe mein padhte yahan wuzu karte

mah-e-siyam mein mauqa jo shab ko mil jata
to ek sans mein khali khum-o-subu karte

sharab pite hi sajde mein un ko girna tha
ye shaghl baith ke mai-nosh qibla-ru karte

har ek qatre se bahti riyaz ju-e-sharab
jo pi ke hum sar-e-zamzam kabhi wuzu karte
